                   What Is Civil Bravery?

Today I did my civic duty and called my Congress person to support the President's Gun Control Proposal. I am for all of the proposal except any full on ban of  guns, or of  any "assault" weapons.  But I am for higher standards of possession of these "assalt" rifles.

What is civil bravery? I say with all respect. Given the above statements, bravery is when your Congressperson just happens to be Carolyn McCarthy.

When you are confident, passionate, principled and have thought on all things and what is right and best for all, you will do the hard things. It was hard, because we know Rep. McCarthy's backgound and how she came into politics. I've voted for her for every term and I am with her on most subject matters, including some gun control, just not any ban. I do support stricter background checks. And I believe limiting armor piercing bullets to only to law enforcement should be on the table. I am with all other measures of the current #guncontrol proposal.  But banning "assault" rifles, when we understand the reasoning behind the #Second Amendment is not a good thing. We must protect that right and freedom, whether we personally agree with it or not. The Second is about the right and giving of ability to keep our freedom against all that may take or threaten to take it. It enables us to defend all other freedoms. If bad guys have these weapons, good guys should to. We should also consider the immediate viable blackmarket that may arise to satisfy demand that will not go a way by any ban.

The #Second is a preventative law and principle. It must not only stand, but it must be understood and enforced. Enforcement  would be that there be no ban on arms to individuals that are good. #Gunregulation can be used to determine who is good and may be not stop, but #control gun violence.

Please consider.

I am with every other measure proposed by the President.

Thank you.

God Bless These UNITED States of America
